Connections
PREPARATION
English
Be sure to make the same type of video connections as those made for your TV if the video conversion is disabled. For example, if you
connected your TV to the VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack of this unit, connect other components to the VIDEO jacks.
Check the copyright laws in your country to record from CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright
laws.
If you connect your DVD player to both the OPTICAL and COAXIAL jacks, priority is given to the signals input at the COAXIAL
jack.
GUI signals are not output at the DVR OUT and VCR OUT jacks and cannot be recorded.
To make a digital connection to a component other than the default one assigned to each DIGITAL INPUT or DIGITAL OUTPUT
jack, configure the “I/O Assignment” setting (page 98).
When connecting a turntable with a low-output MC cartridge to the PHONO jack, use an in-line boosting transformer or MC-head
amplifier.
Connect your turntable to the GND terminal of this unit to reduce noise in the signal.
Connecting an external amplifier
This unit has more than enough power for any home use.
However, if you want to add more power to the speaker
output or if you want to use another amplifier, connect an
external amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks. Each PRE OUT
jack outputs the same channel signals as the
corresponding SPEAKERS terminals.
When you make connections to the PRE OUT jacks, do not
make any connections to the SPEAKERS terminals.
Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on
the subwoofer.
